Has anyone ever followed the Hickox training program for pointing breeds? I ordered his dvd Great Beginnings the First Year along with a clicker as a training aid for my 5 1/2 month old GSP Millie. She is my First personal dog.
To date:
-Crate trained and house broken.
-Has a foundation for basic obedience, but struggles with it.
-Lots of positive field, woods, outdoor, etc exposure.
-Positive introduction to birds
-No introduction to gunfire (only toy cap gun upon release of pigeon with no apprehension)
-No clicker training to date
-No E-collar introduction
Any opinions on the Hickox method for pointers would be greatly appreciated.
